Cuticle care

Cuticle care products

There's a lot of talk about cuticles in beauty salons, but do you really know what they are and why it's so important to take care of them?

The cuticle is a thin layer of skin that protects the base of the nails from bacteria, fungi, and other external agents. Over time, the cuticles' constant contact with water, chemicals, and other external agents causes them to harden, dry out, and lift, affecting their visible appearance and the health of our hands.

Proper cuticle care, in addition to improving the visible appearance of your nails, also helps protect and nurture their growth from the roots up. To achieve this, it's essential to choose the right products, such as cuticle cutters , cuticle oil , and cuticle nippers , which will help you professionally transform the beauty and well-being of your nails from home.

Cuticle cutter

Cuticle nippers have become an indispensable tool in any manicure and pedicure routine. Their purpose is to trim and remove excess dead skin or calluses that form around the base of the nail, known as the cuticle. This tool features small, thin, and sharp blades, often with a V-shaped tip, allowing for precise and delicate trimming of the area. However, not all cuticle nippers on the market are equally effective, which is why at Perfume's Club we carry cuticle nippers from top brands, such as Beter and Galipus.

Cuticle oil

Cuticles not only need to be removed when they become dry; they also need care with emollient and moisturizing products that prevent dryness and the appearance of ingrown nails or calluses. For these cases, cuticle oils are the best choice.

Cuticle oil helps you keep your nails healthy and well-groomed. It moisturizes the skin surrounding the nail, softens dry cuticles, and prevents the appearance of cracks or calluses. Thanks to formulas enriched with natural oils—such as argan, sweet almond, and apricot—and active ingredients like vitamin E, cuticle oil improves skin elasticity, protects against external aggressions, and promotes healthier nail growth. Renowned brands such as Chanel, Dior, Essie, and OPI have developed oils that intensely regenerate and nourish nails.

Cuticle nippers

In addition to cuticle nippers, there are cuticle nippers. While they serve the same purpose, they have a subtle difference in their design and use. Their design resembles a small pair of nippers with sharp blades that snap together to cut. They come in different sizes, depending on the needs and size of the cuticle, and their cutting mechanism works by pinching and removing dry, dead skin.

Compared to cuticle nippers, cuticle nippers are faster and more efficient, and help remove more cuticle on thicker or tougher skin around the nail.

Among the most prominent brands on the market are Beter and Galiplus.
